In today's world, attracting Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is one of the essential tasks of governments. But what effect will the absorption of Foreign Direct Investment have on that society? Based on the review of 18 articles, the researcher has categorized these effects into the following 5 factors. These factors belong to Economy, Environment, Technology, Productivity, and Energy. Following the results of previous studies, the impacts of the five factors mentioned on communities in the effect of FDI are reviewed. The Boolean search methodology is chosen as the methodology, also the finding of the researcher is mentioned in the paragraphs below. FDI not only aids in the development of this industry, but it also has a substantial impact on the micro and macro levels. FDI has a favorable impact on the growth rate of per capita GDP. In addition, the African continent saw significant economic expansion. The impact of financial systems may explain why developing-country correlations are low while developed-country saving-investment correlations are strong. the impact of GDP and energy usage on Carbon dioxide emissions are significant, whereas the impact of FDI on Carbon dioxide emissions is positive but minor. Industrial SO2 emissions will increase by 0.098 percent for every 1% growth in FDI capital stock. FDI rising emissions in middle-income countries in the near term while reduces them in high-income nations. FDI from TMH areas has a substantial beneficial influence on the productivity of the wood products industry at the industrial level. On energy consumption, FDI revealed a negative scale impact, a structural effect, and a positive technical impact. In the end, the impact of foreign direct investment on worker productivity is positive. The researcher recommends that politicians make every effort to improve their country's political and judicial conditions to attract more FDI to their countries.

This paper assesses the impact of Central Bank monetary policies on living standards in Nigeria from 1980 to 2017, using eclectic regression techniques. The outcome reveals that unemployment growth is positively sensitive to policy rates and money supply. Per capita income is negatively sensitive to police rate, which suggests that policies do not address structural weaknesses that influence rapid price variations. The study thus fails to reject the hypothesis that Central Banking policies may be accentuating unemployment and poverty in Nigeria. The paper recommends low policy rate possibly at the middle of single digit; an indexed-wage system; and stoppage of money supply through ways and means.

The study evaluated supply chain management practices of SMMEs in selected locations in Nigeria. It also assessed the performance of SMMEs and determined the level of government assistance to SMMEs in Nigeria. A descriptive survey design was adopted for this study. A sample size of 295 respondents was selected using a simple random sampling technique out of a total population of 2,600 at the time of this study. A questionnaire was used to gather data for this research. The data collected was analyzed using frequencies and percentages, mean, standard deviation, and Pearson’s correlation. Results from the study showed that SMMEs had fairly good supplier integration (50.05%) and information sharing (55.3%) supply chain practices. Results further revealed that operational performance (59.30%) was high and quite satisfactory, while financial performance (51.50%) was a little over average. In addition, the government’s contribution and assistance to SMMEs were low. While suppliers’ integration (r = 0.051, p 0.05), information sharing (r = 0.052, p 0.05) and postponement (r = 0.98, p 0.05) had no significant effect on performance, the extent of outsourcing (r = 0.121, p 0.05) did. Results finally showed that government assistance (r = 0.61, p 0.05) has a positive and significant effect on supply chain management practices. The study concluded that suppliers’ integration and information sharing capabilities were fairly good among the entrepreneurs, the operational performance level among the entrepreneurs was high and satisfactory, and the government’s contribution to the growth of SMMEs was found to be significant, but generally low.
